THE CHRISTOPHERS
15/100mins/2026
Doors open at 7.00 for 7.30 start
The Christophers is a brilliant, character-driven comedy-drama directed by Steven Soderbergh. Sir Ian McKellen stars as Julian Sklar, a once-celebrated but now somewhat forgotten reclusive artist whose estranged children devise a scheme to secure their inheritance by hiring Lori (Michaela Coel), a talented young painter and former art forger, to gain his trust and uncover a legendary series of unfinished paintings hidden in his studio.
As Lori becomes drawn into Sklar’s world, deception gives way to an unexpected relationship that challenges ideas of artistic legacy, authenticity, family, and the true value of creativity. Combining sharp humour with emotional depth, the film is a compelling exploration of ambition, family, and the price of leaving a lasting mark on the world. Also as McKellen has never won an Oscar or BAFTA his performance here could snag it for him.

DEREK V DEREK
88mins/2026
Doors open at 7.00 for 7.30 start
A special film show in collaboration with the Castlemorton Environmental Group
This follows two implacably opposed neighbouring farmers in Devon, both named Derek. One believes in intensive farming while the other creates an oasis for nature, driven by opposing perceptions of agriculture. It is both informative and gently comedic.

THE CRIME IS MINE
15/102mins/2023
Doors open at 7.00 for 7.15 start
Tickets £12
François Ozon’s The Crime Is Mine finds the director in assured form, reviving the sparkle of 1930s boulevard comedy with crisp pacing and elegant visual detail. Madeleine, a penniless actress, and Pauline, her sharp witted lawyer roommate, spin a shaky murder accusation into a daring route to fame. Their ascent, fuelled by humour and theatrical flair, is upended when an ageing diva barges in with her own claim to the crime. Ozon steers the twists and turns with lightness and charm, crafting a very witty and entertaining film.
Thursday 19th November
RENTAL FAMILY
12A/110mins/2025
Doors open at 7.00 for 7.30 start
Rental Family follows an American actor in present day Tokyo who joins a Japanese “rent‑a‑family” agency, playing stand in roles for strangers. As he becomes involved in clients’ lives, he forms authentic bonds that blur acting and reality, rediscovering purpose and belonging. Brendan Fraser’s presence shines with an excellent performance, bringing warmth and charm to a story that blends honest drama with gentle comedy. Hikari’s direction offers an engaging, uplifting journey through Japanese culture, revealing both its secrets and its emotional depth.
